"Biden's Gaza Casualty Conspiracy Theory Debunked as UN Reports Alarming Toll on Children"

President Joe Biden's claim that he had no confidence in the casualty numbers reported by Palestinians in Gaza has been refuted by a new analysis by The Intercept. Human rights organizations, including the Associated Press, have noted that the figures from the Gaza Ministry of Health have historically aligned with those reported by the Israeli government and the United Nations. The Intercept corroborated the names of victims on the ministry's list through a single family, further undermining the skepticism. Despite the mounting evidence, the Biden administration has not withdrawn support for Israel and is instead putting together a $14 billion package for the country. As of October 31, the Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that at least 8,525 Palestinians have been killed and over 21,543 injured since October 7.
